Honey BBQ Pasta Salad

45 Minutes

4 Servings

Ingredients:

Salt, for taste

16 oz elbow pasta

1 rib celery, finely chopped

6 green onions, thinly sliced

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1 package bacon, chopped

2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

2 tsp Wedderspoon Manuka Honey

3 tsp dried chili powder

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 tsp dried garlic powder

1/2 tsp hot sauce

1 cup mayonaise

1/2 cup bbq sauce

Directions:

Bring four quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Add one tbsp salt and pasta and cook pasta until just al dente. Drain in a colander and rinse with cold water until cool, then drain again briefly, so the pasta remains somewhat moist; transfer to a large bowl.

Heat a large skillet, add chopped bacon and onions. Once onions have softened, add Wedderspoon Manuka Honey. Cook until the bacon is dark and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
